One Moto Cafe is Portland's original motorcycle coffee shop, operating at 1642 NE Sandy Blvd in Portland's Laurelhurst neighborhood. The cafe — founded as See See Motor Coffee Co. and relaunched under the One Moto banner — serves Stumptown coffee, food from the in-house Sidewinder Subs kitchen, and craft beers. Vintage motorcycles on display, racing helmets, and a community bulletin board of local rides give the interior its identity. The cafe hosts motorcycle-culture events and is affiliated with The One Motorcycle Show, an annual Portland custom-bike showcase. Open daily 7 a.m. to 4 p.m.

// The stop

Opened by the people behind The One Moto Show, this cafe on NE Sandy Blvd started as See See Motor Coffee Co. and has carried that same community-first identity through its relaunch under the One Moto banner. The space itself does the talking: vintage motorcycles, racing helmets lining the walls, and a bulletin board of local rides make clear this is a place built by riders, for riders. The cafe serves coffee, breakfast, and lunch seven days a week, with craft beers also on offer.

The social pull is real. The cafe hosts a recurring monthly meetup — bring your bike, or just show up — and the connection to The One Motorcycle Show means the calendar stays active with events that draw the wider Portland moto community. If you park out front and walk in, expect to stay longer than planned: the room tends to fill with people who know roads worth knowing about.

// Why riders stop

Portland's de facto motorcycle community hub — the kind of place where you walk in for coffee and leave two hours later with a new riding group and a tip about a road you didn't know existed.

Aufderheide Scenic Drive (Forest Road 19)
Oregon
The Robert Aufderheide Memorial Drive (Forest Service Road 19) is a 58-mile paved road through the Willamette National Forest connecting OR-126 (McKenzie River Highway) at the north to OR-58 (Oakridge) at the south. The road meanders along the wild and scenic North Fork of the Middle Fork Willamette River and past Cougar Reservoir, Terwilliger Hot Springs, and Constitution Grove — a stand of 200-year-old Douglas fir. The pavement is smooth with consistent-radius curves and nearly neutral camber, making it a favorite for sport bikes and cruisers alike. The route is generally open April through November; not maintained in winter.

Cascade Lakes Scenic Byway (Century Drive)
Oregon
The Cascade Lakes Scenic Byway — locally known as Century Drive — is a 66-mile loop through the Deschutes National Forest west and south of Bend, designated a National Scenic Byway. The route leaves Bend on OR-372 (Century Drive), enters the national forest as Forest Route 46, and passes more than a dozen alpine lakes set against the backdrop of Mount Bachelor, Broken Top, and the Three Sisters. Elevations peak near 6,500 feet. The byway is seasonal, typically open June through November depending on snowpack. Riders can extend the loop south to Sunriver or La Pine on the return.

Cloudcap Overlook
Oregon
Cloudcap Overlook is the highest point in Crater Lake National Park accessible to motor vehicles, sitting on the eastern rim at approximately 7,960 feet. The paved pull-off provides an elevated, unobstructed view across the deep-blue caldera to Wizard Island and the western ridgeline. It is reached via Rim Drive, the 33-mile loop road that encircles the lake, and sits roughly 17 miles northeast of Rim Village. The overlook is open only when Rim Drive is clear of snow — typically mid-July through October. Motorcycles pay a separate entry fee at park gates.
